Dear list, while testing 595b8ecd47e4dde64f704bf78d8c9b97e070ac67 ([PATCH] block: remove artifical max_hw_sectors cap), i came around a problem with some crucial m500 ssds direct attached. With the patch applied, i see the following max_sectors_kb value: # cat /sys/block/sdi/queue/max_sectors_kb 16383 But this results in the following error messages (at random time - most probably at high load): Write(10): 2a 00 04 f9 db f0 00 0c d8 00 scsi target0:0:7: handle(0x000a), sas_address(0x4433221107000000), phy(7) scsi target0:0:7: enclosure_logical_id(0x5003048016aee700), slot(5) sd 0:0:7:0: task abort: SUCCESS scmd(ffff88018c6b4700) sd 0:0:7:0: attempting task abort! scmd(ffff8807a12e6800) sd 0:0:7:0: [sdh] CDB: Read(10): 28 00 15 d4 f9 60 00 00 10 00 scsi target0:0:7: handle(0x000a), sas_address(0x4433221107000000), phy(7) scsi target0:0:7: enclosure_logical_id(0x5003048016aee700), slot(5) sd 0:0:7:0: task abort: SUCCESS scmd(ffff8807a12e6800) sd 0:0:7:0: attempting task abort! scmd(ffff88078d989800) sd 0:0:7:0: [sdh] CDB: Read(10): 28 00 15 aa d2 f9 00 00 20 00 Stefan -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
